By Marcel Consée, Mouser Electronics Healthcare can be deeply personal, and direct contact between patients and medical personnel remains vital. However, taking the relationship between doctors and nurses out of the equation can sometimes make sense. Medical crises such as the global COVID-19 pandemic accelerate the adoption of telehealth methods, even though the original idea […]
An introduction to ultrasonic sensors
Ultrasonic sensors have been a popular method for distance measurement and object detection for many years. Their basic operating principle works by measuring the amount of time it takes for their emitted ultrasonic pulse of sound to bounce off an object and return, hence the name ultrasonic sensor. With the market for autonomous robots, vehicles, […]
Laminated bus bars: design, fabrication, and testing considerations
The laminated bus bar (LBB) is a passive component which is used in many systems to carry power and even signals between multiple points with minimal voltage drop, power loss, and inductance. This laminated bus bar has multiple conducting layers of copper or aluminum separated by adhesive-coated insulating dielectric film. The conducting and interposed dielectric […]
Data Center Solutions – The Heat is On
Data centers are the backbone of today’s industries, providing a centralized facility for the servers, routers, switches, and interfaces that transform high-speed data streams. Essentially, these centers distribute and manage data between information providers and consumers — and the demand is growing for more data at higher speeds. It’s predicted by 2021, global IP traffic […]
Co-Modeling: A Powerful Capability for Hardware Emulation
Understanding co-modeling technology in an emulation environment and its impact on verification and validation is critical to improving a wide range of significant capabilities. This is especially true in the areas of functionality, performance, debug, power analysis, design for test (DFT), coverage, software co-verification, interoperability of systems, and improved time to market. This paper explores […]
